Absorbing boundary conditions for reactiondiffusion equations
1 LAGA UMR 7539, Institut Galilée, Université Paris 13, 99, avenue J. B. Clément, 93430 Villetaneuse, France
We treat here of the question of absorbing boundary conditions for nonlinear diffusion equations. We use the conditions designed for the linear equation, we prove them to be well posed for the nonlinear problem, and through numerical experiments that they are well suited for reactiondiffusion equations.
Keywords: absorbing boundary conditions; finite elements; Galerkin method; reactiondiffusion equations; existence of uniqueness result.
